The F.A.M.E. Awards is an annual ceremony recognizing fan favorites in adult media – sort of a People's Choice of Porn – and coincides with the Erotica LA convention. This was the 4th annual event.

Tera Patrick has now taken Favorite Female Starlet three years in a row at the F.A.M.E. Awards. She was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame this year, and is also now the star of the bedroom-instructional School of Sex series on Playboy TV, in addition to her many adult films.

Evan Stone starred as the ship's captain in Pirates II: Stagnetti's Revenge from Digital Playground, the film that went on to cause controversy at the Univeristy of Maryland and across the country with its screening tour of college campuses. Among other films, Stone also starred – again, as the captain – in Hustler's perfectly timed Star Trek porn spoof This Ain't Star Trek XXX, capitalizing on the J.J. Abrams reboot.

Favorite Rookie Starlet winner Tori Black was a Penthouse Pet in December 2008 and has starred in dozens of adult films since her 2007 debut.
